About this map

Epsom and Cornettsville anchor this agricultural landscape in Daviess County, documented in the early twenty-first century. The map reveals an intricate network of drainage systems essential to the region's productive farmland, including the Epsom Lateral, Bethel Ditch, and Thompson Ditch. These man-made channels support the larger natural waterways such as Smothers Cr and the N Fork Prairie Cr.

A notable engineering feature, the Prairie Creek Structure Number A-2-3, highlights modern water management efforts in the southern portion of the quadrangle. In the northwest corner, a bend of the White River touches the area, while the rest of the sheet is defined by a rigorous grid of county roads, such as Co RD-1400 and Co RD-475, that organize the rural residential and agricultural plots between the primary settlements.
